Gene,

Who is that monk shown in the next to the "Keeping Current" article by Jon Funk? I have seen many photos of him but I have yet to get his name. His body postures are quite excellent. He has impressed me the most of the Shaolin monks. I have yet to see anything with him in it other than the Hai Deng documentary.

He did poses for a few of the earlier Shaolin books, and that's probably how his image got into our image archive, but I'm not sure who that is. I'll try to find the original and look again, but if memory serves, it's someone I haven't met. I venture a guess and say that the pic is from the early 90's.

Hi Gene,

Thank you for checking. Even in the photographs that I have seen of him, his posture seemed to embody a generation of training that was far removed (positively) from the other monks.
